Measurements of 235U(nth,f) Spectrum Averaged Cross Sections (SACS) in zero power reactors
This paper deals with the measurement of Spectrum Averaged Cross Sections in two different neutron fields formed in zero power reactors. The first was Benchmark Neutron Reference Field in the LR-0 reactor, and the second field was in the center of the vertical channel touching the fuel in the VR-1 r...

| description | This paper deals with the measurement of Spectrum Averaged Cross Sections in two different neutron fields formed in zero power reactors. The first was Benchmark Neutron Reference Field in the LR-0 reactor, and the second field was in the center of the vertical channel touching the fuel in the VR-1 reactor. The spectrum averaged cross section differs for both cases as the spectra differ, but after normalization to 235U PFNS using calculated correction, both results are in good agreement, thus confirming the spectra in both cases are similar in the 1 – 14 MeV region. A good agreement between lower threshold reactions averaged in actual reactor spectra and prompt fission neutron spectrum of 235U is reported as well. |
